Mexican Lasagna

"I could not find a recipe that had the ingredients that I either had on hand or that my group liked. So I took several recipes and combined to come up with this one. This was a nod (with mouthful) can post and make again. I served this with a tossed salad with fresh avocado slices. If you prefer more heat, feel free to adjust spices to your preference."

directions

  • In large skillet brown and crumble ground beef and drain well.
  • While beef is draining, saute onion & garlic in the 1 teaspoon olive oil. Cook for approximately 5 minutes or just until softened. Return beef to skillet. Stir to mix well. Season with taco seasoning (this would be 2 - 1.25oz packages if you don't make your own).
  • When all meat is coated with seasoning, add tomato sauce and water. Let simmer on low heat for 20 minutes.
  • Spray 10"x15"x3" pan with cooking spray and ladle meat sauce on bottom. Place tortillas across bottom, overlapping and cutting to cover bottom.
  • Ladle more sauce over tortillas.
  • Sprinkle black beans over the sauce. Top with layer of cheese.
  • Place another layer of overlapping and cut tortillas, sauce, cheese. Repeat.
  • Bake in 350 degree (f) oven for 30 minutes. Remove from oven and let sit 15 minutes before serving.
  • Garnish with sour cream, salsa and sliced black olives (optional).
